All of these deal with Humakt's relation to the Storm Tribe -- is it necessarily an aspect of all versions of Humakt? Humakt is worshipped outside of Orlanthi culture in (at least) Esrolia and Carmania (and your character's situation) -- they certainly do not have to explain why Humakt severed himself from his kin. Maybe their myths about Humakt have say he left own family in disgust to take service with a better (more honest, more correct, more whatever) group. Maybe non-Orlanthi Humakti don't sever their connection to their families. Maybe they immediately replace loyalty to a family with loyalty to a lord, temple, community, whatever on initiation -- showing their extreme abstract dedication to a group or cause rather than individuals.
